LOST CAUSE

(album: Circles - 2021)

Born as a lost cause if I'm found
It's probably somewhere six feet down
I'm drifting away and you might drown
If you jump in and try to save me

It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep
(It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)
I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams
(I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)

My friends shoot the back of my head and I use all the blood that I shed
To try to drown out every single one of my sorrows
And wait around for a better tomorrow to come
People push me toward the edge and tie a noose around my neck
You said it's my best interest if I stepped back and didn't but I'm

Born as a lost cause if I'm found
It's probably somewhere six feet down
I'm drifting away and you might drown
If you jump in and try to save me

It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep
(It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)
I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams
(I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)

You helped me retrace all the steps where
I went wrong with all my regrets
And somehow you never ended up frustrated
I don't understand all of your patience with me
Everyone got up and left you just stuck around instead
Your belief in me's contagious but I'll never meet expectations at all

Born as a lost cause if I'm found
It's probably somewhere six feet down
I'm drifting away and you might drown
If you jump in and try to save me
(You can't save me!)

It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep
(It's fucked up every time I see you I'm asleep)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)
I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams
(I'm terrified that I'll never be the man of your dreams)
It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me
(It's a nightmare that you're scared and you're counting on me)
